L'International School Zurich North (ISZN) offre un'istruzione di alta qualit\u00e0 a bambini dai 3 mesi ai 18 anni. Situato vicino alla stazione ferroviaria di Wallisellen, a sole due fermate dalla stazione centrale di Zurigo, il nostro moderno campus offre aule luminose e spaziose e strutture avanzate che favoriscono un apprendimento stimolante ed efficace.<\/p>\n
L'ISZN offre un percorso completo di studi britannici dalla prima infanzia fino agli A-Level. Nei primi anni, i bambini beneficiano di una doppia base linguistica in inglese e tedesco dall'asilo nido alla scuola materna 1, prima di continuare in inglese con il curriculum britannico. Nei primi anni di vita e nella scuola primaria, l'approccio britannico combina la scoperta basata sul gioco con una chiara progressione nell'alfabetizzazione e nel calcolo, fornendo ai bambini una solida base per l'apprendimento futuro.<\/p>\n
Nel corso degli anni medi, gli studenti seguono un programma di studi ampio ed equilibrato che approfondisce le materie, incoraggiando al contempo il pensiero indipendente e la risoluzione dei problemi. Grazie a insegnanti specializzati, a una progressione strutturata e all'opportunit\u00e0 di approfondire i propri interessi, gli studenti sviluppano la disciplina accademica e la fiducia necessaria per affrontare la fase IGCSE. Questa preparazione accurata garantisce una transizione agevole verso la fase finale degli studi.<\/p>\n
A livello secondario, gli studenti frequentano gli IGCSE e gli A-Level, qualifiche riconosciute per il loro rigore accademico e la loro portabilit\u00e0 a livello mondiale. Questi percorsi aprono le porte alle principali universit\u00e0 svizzere, tra cui il Politecnico di Zurigo, e alle migliori istituzioni del mondo.<\/p>\n
Il benessere \u00e8 al centro della vita studentesca dell'ISZN, con un'atmosfera di sostegno che valorizza la gentilezza, il rispetto e la resilienza. Il nostro vivace programma extrascolastico estende l'apprendimento al di l\u00e0 della classe, con punti di forza nel teatro, nell'arte, nella musica e negli sport agonistici, oltre a opportunit\u00e0 come lezioni private di musica, coding e robotica. Le dimensioni ridotte delle classi e un team di insegnanti dedicato assicurano un'attenzione personalizzata e un'integrazione senza problemi per ogni bambino, anche per quelli che si iscrivono a met\u00e0 anno.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Early Years (3 months \u2013 5 years)
\nOur Early Years provision begins in Nursery and extends through Kindergarten 1.
